Excuses & Daily Updates

I felt disappointed when I played the game

I like the book though..

I can never bring myself to write anything in the book, it's too pretty. ;_;

Still have yet to receive my certificate! Thinking about looking into the matter, but not sure where to start... I use the book for a lot of things.. sketches and things like synthesis recipes or notes

Ironically people that are cynical seem to think anything logical is an "excuse" or "white knight" or "defending". Rift wasn't rushed out the door, XIV was. Rift doesn't need a complete foundation overhaul (It's WoW with a different storyline using a basic concept from XI - Campaign/Besieged/Dominion Ops), XIV does.

I don't know about SE being hurt by their silence, as they have their massive offline library, including PSN releases that's doing very, very well and XI, it's just people are growing more and more critical over this game they're not seeing the bigger picture that when you need to redesign an entire MMORPG, you're going to be busy, and looking at the Japanese forums and reading what Yoshida wrote, they're just not sitting on their hands like some want to truly believe.

Stop with the common sense!

And in case you didn't know, I'm being sarcastic.

Thanks for posting another redundant thread. Patience is a virtue people, considering how much he posted on crafting shows they're pretty much revamping the game from top to bottom. There's a lot going on behind the scenes, more than we will ever know, but all we can do is be patient.

Yoshi-P posting tidbits of news isn't going to make things better, considering he posted something new and now people are complaining that SE isn't translating fast enough or everything should be in English. If he posted something like "Today we worked on the battle system.", people would want more, they would want specifics. The info is coming, all you have to do is sit on your butt and press F5 until next week.

I freaking hate this sentence so much. Such an apologist attitude does nothing but lure haters to comment. If you have nothing relevant to say, don't say anything.

In other news, I'd really like to know when Yoshida is taking a dump. Communication plz.

I did watch it, first thing I did actually when I got the Limited Edition (While letting the game install)... Everything on the DVD was already up on youtube BEFORE the limited editions was released so I had already seen like 90% of it. =( Super fail.
But honestly, I'm tired of making excuses for SE. So now I'm just sitting and waiting till when I'll want to go back to playing FFXIV. Spending my spare time playing Rift and other games until then. (And using whatever time leftover after that on the FFXIV forum!)

I just wish they'd bring back the roadmap from Tanka's days/Early Yoshi days. I preferred it to the last few Letter's from the Producers. I like getting a comprhensive view of what's going on, and then can just move stuff along the timeline as the larger patches get put out.

Agreed I would be content with that.
